Default Re: Super-Jump to Lightspeed!

Its strange how poorly the relationship between enhanced move and super jump deteriorate. Enhanced move starts out with a much better position, but the two are exponential functions with jump having half the cost for essentially the same effect (more, if you consider the speed gained is instantaneous.)

Also it can be argued that while jumping the light speed in the physical world would cause nuclear reactions (as in reactions in the nuclei of atoms, not a uranium reaction) , gurp's "buy the effects" rules means you don't turn into a clould of vapor. You just go impossibly fast. And if you're using that power, there should be a very good backstory behind it.
